do not disturb keeps turning itself off overnight

[anon(7901790)]

sorry to piggyback this discussion, but why doesn't DND mean DND? I still get emails every night even with it on. is there any way to stop this behavior? I'm po'd during the night and every morning when I wake up. thanks.

Do you have certain contacts marked as favorites? If so, are those emails coming from those contacts? I have my DnD set to only get notifications from any contacts marked as a favorite. I only have about six people marked as a favorite.

thanks. yes, I do the same, and no the incoming emails are from vendors or credit card companies. that's why I don't get it and I'm miffed. it allows any email message through and I can't figure it out.

Interesting. Could it be a Sprint thing?

When I wake up in the morning, I have several notifications, however, I don't get audio notifications until 6:00AM when DnD turns off.

Here is what my DnD looks like:

it could be. sprint does weirdness like that. it could be something I have disabled too. I'm pretty strict with what I allow, but, it's also been like that since the first day so actually pretty unlikely and/or hard to trace back. I only added app blocking later.

for nots I don't allow sound because I check my device too frequently anyway for client emails. so I typically see anything coming through, but at night it starts my mind working and I can't go back to sleep so I need them to not show up.

thanks. I'll check my settings against yours. hopefully something will make a difference or I just need to start disabling the mail app at night. what a pita that would be though... all its own warts

No worries. I learned to filter certain things a LONG time ago. After 22 years in the Army, I learned to say, "f$@%it, it can wait until tomorrow."

so very true. I was in the Army too (!) but I'm still not good at the waiting part so I need it removed from my sight. if it's there, I will check it... my folly

Lol. You just have to use the force my young padawan.

Where were you stationed?

lol Ft. Gordon, GA, but soooooo long ago

I never had the pleasure of being stationed at Gordon, or anywhere else on the east coast for that matter. I got stationed in places like TX, AZ, OK, Korea, Germany, Bosnia, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq.

Love Germany. no experience with the others.

TX, AZ, Germany, Korea, and Bosnia were fun. The rest...meh...

Oh yeah, I forgot Kosovo, which was not to bad also.

 

[toenail_flicker]

TX,

I've kicked around there and yeah, it's fun

dragging up an old thread but I am still having this issue. nearly everyday but no every day DND just turns itself off.. can't seem to figure out why. anybody else ?

also related or unrelated I'm not sure. I've noticed that about 60% of the time when I leave a wifi area my phone doesn't have data until I enable/disable airplane more or go onto connections and disable/enable the mobile network.. so strange

 

[just_luc]

thinking I might have to try a factory reset soon. wonder if my issues are cause by importing old settings from my note 8

 

[Mr-Guy]

its Bixby doing it actually, swipe down from the top of the screen...look for Bixby routines running.

I don't have any Bixby routines setup

It can set them up automatically for you.

Yeah, you might have to try a factory reset as not many others are experiencing this issue. When I switch up phones, like right now I'm on the Pixel 4, I leave my Note 10+ on DND so I can still keep it on and get app updates and what not and it never turns itself off even after a scheduled restart.

But when I go into the Bixby routines there aren't any

sadly it seems the only option but I will not be pleased if I go through all that and it doesn't fix
